MATRIX SEND PRE. Feeds
to the matrix modules from the
stereo busses are post fader as
a default. When the MATRIX
SEND PRE is active, the feed
changes to pre fader and pre
insert.
The INS LEFT and RIGHT
switches connect the master
left and right insert return
signals to the stereo master
mix.
The BALANCE (pan) control
gives continuous and
reciprocal adjustment of the
stereo left and right signal
levels by + 3dB to off. This
allows fine adjustment of the
left, right power levels and
imaging.
The stereo master MUTE
switches mute the stereo master
outputs but not the insert sends.
These switches are under
automation control.
The stereo master SOLO
switches send stereo master
signals to the PFL mono and
AFL stereo busses. If the
switch is pressed for a short
time it will latch on or off, but
if it is held on for more than 1
second the latching is disabled
and when the switch is
released the solo will turn off.
The stereo MASTER FADER
gives continuous adjustment of
the stereo master mix level
from + 10dB to off.

The master mix signal can not
be sent to the solo busses while
any other solo is active. This
means that they can be left on
to provide a stereo master
signal in the headphones
which will be overridden if
any other solo is activated on
the console.
